Health care financing in zambia is mainly though two avenues, the national health insurance scheme as well as through GRZ funding via the national budget and to a significant end, the donor community, civil societies and other health related grants. prior to the establishment of the national health insurance scheme, we mainly depended on the other means as aforementioned, this meant that we did not have a consistent pooling fund dedicated to healthcare provision and so, we constantly had to supplement and redirect other funds to towards health just come close to the 15% demand of budgetary allocation we stull continue to lamentably fail to meet.
Having established these facts, i would outrightly say that we heading somewhere however slow we might bee as we have seen the impact of the scheme in provision of healthcare for all in all setups and most especially when there is need to diagnostic or specialist care which could previously not be withing the reach of the poor communities.
